The Indian government had given Qazi a week to pack following an attack last week by suspected Pakistan-based Islamic militants. They raided an army camp in the Indian-controlled portion of Kashmir, killing 34 people - mostly soldiers' wives and children. Qazi took a domestic flight to Amritsar en route to the Wagah border between the two neighbours. From Amritsar, he was headed for Pakistan by road. India and Pakistan withdrew overflight facilities to each others' airlines early this year following worsening of relations, with India blaming Pakistani terrorists for the December 13 attack on parliament. New Delhi recalled its ambassador from Pakistan after the attack. Meanwhile, India's troop build-up continued with soldiers flying from New Delhi to Srinagar. And in Jammu, more troops could be seen moving towards the line Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir state. India and Pakistan have massed about one (M) million troops at their frontier. In the past week, cross-border shelling has killed dozens in divided Kashmir, which both nations claim. India and Pakistan have fought two of their three wars over the Himalayan region. Amid the escalating crisis, villagers residing near the Line of Control continued to pack up their belongings and leave their homes. India accuses Pakistan of waging a proxy war for 12 years by promoting Pakistan-based Islamic militants, who New Delhi brands as terrorists, fighting for Indian-controlled Kashmir's independence or merger with Pakistan. At least 60-thousand have been killed in the insurgency. Pakistan denies training and arming the rebels, saying it only supports the goals of what it calls "freedom fighters".
